On another note, I checked the section on Sting on www.allmusicguide.com, and under "See also" there was a link to Bernard Sumner... Are they related? I found an interview with Bernard Sumner where he was asked that question, and he said Sting was his "great grandfather"... But I presume that was a joke :-)

Bernard is the singer for New Order. I don't think he's directly related to Sting, but I suppose it's possible that they share a relation or two at some point in their family trees. Mitch
